Lord of the Flies with girls

That phrase just doesn't work. The book would be entirely different if girls were characters in the story. There most likely would have been a whole new set of conflicts, themes, and character roles. Stereotypically, girls act very different around girls as they do boys. Also, girls tend to want and need different things than guys do. Both things can create enormous amounts of drama. This potential conflict would take away from the conflict between Ralph and Jack. The conflict between Jack and Ralph even is the outline for a theme for the book. William Golding had to make a decision whether or not to include females in Lord of the Flies. He made the right decision. If he had, the book would have been drastically altered.
